在 SMS，我们相信学生具有天生的好奇心以及探索和学习的渴望。
在我们的预科课程中，从幼儿园到四年级的学生通过体验式机会得到培养。我们支持学习者勇于冒险、解决问题、合作和建立联系，所有这些都旨在将他们的学习与周围的世界联系起来。
导师制
我们最小的学生受到他们每天遇到的高年级学生以及初中同学的指导和启发。
跨年级学习
SMS 的独特设置是从幼儿园到 12 年级都在同一个校园，因此有很多跨年级学习的机会。以下是今年的两个例子：
Who We Are
我们三年级的学生欢迎了来自高中的一位特别嘉宾，即系统 STEM 教师 William FitzGerald 博士，他为我们提供了有关物质方面的一些见解。
Where We Are in Place and Time
作为 SMS STEM-X 周的一部分，二年级学生欢迎了一位来自高中的特殊访客——STEM-X 负责人兼课程助理琼斯先生来到他们的课堂。这些小科学家一直在学习事物变化的化学和物理方式，琼斯先生则在那里演示如何使用可食用粘液。他并不是唯一的客人，二年级学生中还有沃尔顿女士和 10 年级和 11 年级烹饪艺术学生。
